"With almost $9 trillion dollars in IRAs, self-directed IRA investors are playing an important role in fueling the growing private capital markets for U.S. businesses," stated Adam Bergman, President of the IRA Financial Group.

At least $2.4 trillion was raised privately in the U.S. last year. That widened a gap that emerged in 2011 with the public markets, which raised $2.1 trillion, according to the Wall Street Journal's analysis of tens of thousands of securities filings and data provider Dealogic.
